reduce the operating speed so as not to loose the connection, but nearly always the
best option is to select “Automático”
Press “Siguiente” once you have selected the three parameters. The utility will then ask
you to select the encryption that your connection requires.
USB Adapter
User Manual
Page 21
Very important note: If you use encryption, it is necessary to type in the same key both
in the wireless ADSL modem/router and the PCMCIA Card or USB Adapter that makes
up your wireless network. For your convenience, make sure you have the configuration
data of your access point
Wireless network encryption is a very important parameter. You have three kinds of
security: “Deshabilitado” (Disabled), “WEP” o “WPA-PSK”.
If you choose to select “Desactivado”, your connection will be completely open to
unwanted users. Anyone with a wireless device could intercept your signal y use your
wireless network to surf the net or access the information on your local area network.
It is recommended that you always configure your wireless network with the
encryption enabled. “WEP” encryption has two options:
64 bit key:
128 bit key:
Less safe but quicker.
Safer but slower.
You can select any of the two codes. It is recommended to select 128 bits key for an
802.11b Base Unit or wireless ADSL modem/router.
The difference between the two is the length of the key that is used to encode and
decode the data. A 64bit key is made up of 10 hexadecimal digits, which means 0 to 9
and from A to F.
Examples of 64 bits keys:
1020304050
ABCDEF9876
12F4A23CC0
128 bit keys are made up of 26 hexadecimal digits. For example:
102030405060708090AABBCCDD
72388037456272AF23987CD6876
In the example below a 128 bit key is used by selecting “128 bits” and pressing
“Siguiente”.
USB Adapter
User Manual
Page 22
In the screen where the key is specified, you must specify the format of the key. You
can use “Alfanumérico” (Alphanumeric), “Hexadecimal” o “Frase” (phrase). In the
example “Hexadecimal” is used.
Note: In “Frase” format, you can use up to a maximum of 32 characters both in 64 or
128 bits. In “Alfanumérico” you use 5 characters in 64 bits y 13 characters in 128 bits.
Type in the wireless networks encoded key. Remember that the same key must be
specified in the rest of the networks wireless components, such as the access point, etc.
If you have an 802.11g Wireless ADSL Router and USB Adapter, it is recommended that
you use “WPA-PSK”. In the “Encriptación” (Encryption) option, select “TKIP” and press
“Siguiente”.
In the next screen, type in the network key. Remember that you must use the same key
that has been configured in the Wireless ADSL Router, in the example below
“Telefonica” has been used. Press “Siguiente” once you have typed in the correct key.

User Manual
Page 38
The drivers and Monitor de Red Inalámbrica cannot be installed
Cause: Your PC has an anterior version of a wireless device installed. The following
device will appear:
Solution:
De-install the anterior wireless device version. To obtain the de-installation procedure
of this device, please refer to the device in question’s user manual.
Windows cannot detect the USB Adapter
Cause: Connection or installation problems.
Solution:
- Make sure the USB Adapter is connected correctly to the USB port of your
PC.
- Make sure the USB ports are enabled in the BIOS of your PC.
- If an anterior installation has been cancelled, it is possible that the device
is in an inactive state. De-install the device and repeat the installation
process from the beginning as explained in this manual.
The Monitor de Red Inalámbrica shows a very low signal level
Cause: The signal is instable due to obstacles and/or interferences.
Solution:
- Change the orientation of the antennas, both in the access point and the
USB Adapter. You can try this by slightly moving your laptop towards the
access point.
- Other electrical equipment within the vicinity can sometimes cause radio
interference, move the USB Adapter away from the access point, cell
phones and metallic elements that could interfere with the wireless
radio signal.
- If there is a different wireless network within the vicinity, interference
can be caused by the use of the same channel. You can make some home
tests if this problem arise using the Monitor de Red Inalámbrica by
clicking on the tab “Redes Disponibles”. If it detects a nearby wireless
network which is using the same channel as yours, change the channel in
your access point or wireless ADSL modem/router (Consult the
corresponding user manual to reconfigure). Once you have changed the
channel, the wireless clients will automatically change and the new
channel selected and the interference problem will cease to exist. It is
also possible that two or more wireless networks exist within the signal
range of your wireless network, in this case it is recommended that the
channels configured are separated by as greater a distance as possible, it
is not good to have the channels in a consecutive order and it is
recommended that the channels are separated by at least 5 channels to
the nearest access point. Refer to the access point’s user manual for
channel modification.
